Hmmm... I was under the impression that they would NARROW the gauge on curves,
not widen them. But then, I guess it would depend on which rail you had the
gauge on... the INNER rail of the curve or the OUTER rail... if on the inner
rail it should narrow the gauge and on the outer rail it should widen the
gauge. No?

I have always believed that the advantage of the three point gauge was that
it automatically widened the gauge on curves. To do this properly the
spacing between the two gauge points on the arms would require a specific
value.
Using the roller type gauge or the NASG flat gauge would require some
eye-ball adjustments on curves.

Anyone got any thoughts on this new design?
